MUMBAI, Feb 24 (Reuters) - India's Kotak Mahindra Prime plans to raise funds through bonds maturing in five years and via the reissue of zero-coupon bonds maturing in October 2025, three merchant bankers said on Friday. The non-banking finance company aims to raise at least 1.50 billion rupees ($18.15 million) via five-year bonds and at least 250 million rupees via reissue, they said. The company has invited bids from bankers and investors on Monday, and the issues have a greenshoe option to retain 3.50 billion rupees and 1.25 billion rupees, respectively.


The bonds are rated AAA by CRISIL, and the issue will close for subscription next week. Earlier this month, the company raised an aggregate of 1.75 billion rupees via reissuance of 7.8779% May 2025 bonds and zero-coupon bonds maturing in October 2025.
